I really liked it. It was like a mixture of Ong Bak and Judge Dredd. Some great great action scenes and fatalities, that one little asian dude was a beast. Going to go see the 2nd in theatres tomorrow and support this mo'fucka.

X-men are showing up in Spidey 2's after credit scenes. While execs are saying this doesn't mean a team up is happening next, reports are this is a fundamental step between Fox and Sony to come to some sort of arrangement for the two. I would love a full on Marvel universe movie, no idea how the hell anyone in their right mind would pull that **** off, but god damn that would be incredible.

I'll believe it when I see it. If it does happen, it will quite possibly be the best thing that has ever happened.

Oh and apparently it is just a teaser for X-Men Days of Future Past. I guess a bridge is still a bridge though. Hopefully it's not just an advertising trend that is going to start happening with multiple movie studios. The "You scratch my back, I'll scratch yours" deal.

It looks good but I'm just so tired of Wolverine at this point, and it looks like it's a Wolverine movie.

Well, unfortunately, movie studios have to adhere to the casual fan. A lot of folks don't know who Kitty Pryde is. And they probably don't want to go to the film to see her as the catalyst for the entire plot like in the original storyline. They want to see Wolverine. I already expect Wolverine to be the main character yet again in X-Men: Age of Apocalypse. And another Wolverine movie is slated to begin production soon too.

I'm not asking they focus on random characters, but spread it around to people that aren't Wolverine or Storm.

I understand what you are saying. I had wished in the first couple of films some other characters got more screen time. The entire movie franchise is more like Wolverine and the X-Men instead of just X-Men. First Class did just fine without Wolverine.

Well that was fun while it lasted. Of course it was just some bogus marketing ********. Sigh.

Reports surfaced this week (via Empire Online) that a clip of Fox’s X-Men: Days of Future Past plays after Sony’s Amazing Spider-Man 2, prompting many fans to speculate about whether the two studios have planned a team-up to unite the X-Men and Spider-Man franchises. The short answer is no: The Days of Future Past stinger at the end of Amazing Spider-Man 2 actually came about as a result of negotiations between the two studios for director Marc Webb to return to the Spider-verse.

According to Variety, the deal came about during negotiations between Sony and Fox in 2012, when discussing Webb’s contract with Fox Searchlight to direct another film following (500) Days of Summer. Reportedly, Fox allowed Webb to return for Amazing Spider-Man 2, but only because Sony agreed to promote Days of Future Past for free. There is no crossover in the works between the two studios’ franchises.

The deal would also partially explain Webb’s return to the Amazing Spider-Man franchise for a third film with no mention of his promised film to Fox Searchlight, though the director has stated it will be his last run with the wall-crawler.

Amazing Spider-Man 2 hits theaters May 2, while X-Men: Days of Future Past arrives May 23.

Have faith in Singer. The plot and people who time travel make perfect sense. Kitty still sends them off.

Also, it's a good thing that they focus on Wolverine. I loved Cyclops when I was a kid but Hugh Jackman, Fassbender, McAvoy, Hoult, and Lawrence are a good bet.

Famous Hollywood director Bryan Singer has been accused in a new federal lawsuit of sexually abusing a 15-year-old boy.

The suit, filed Wednesday in federal court in Hawaii, accused the 48-year-old “X-Men” filmmaker of first preying on the 15-year-old aspiring actor at a party at a California mansion where underage boys were plied with drugs and alcohol and taken advantage of.

“The stories that I’ve heard of what went on at the estate are truly despicable,” the accuser’s lawyer, Miami attorney Jeff Herman, told the Daily News Wednesday night.

Herman identified the accuser as Michael Egan III. Egan, who is now in his 30s and will appear at a Thursday news conference at the Four Seasons Hotel in L.A., was forcibly sodomized by the director when he was 15 in the late-1990s, according to the suit. Singer had promised Egan a role in one of his movies and had numerous sexual encounters with the boy when he was 15 and 16, Herman told The News. Singer also allegedly brought Egan to Hawaii for multiple extended trips when he was 17.
